The devil is coming

Chapter 693 Dawn
"Hold it down."
Eunuch Zhang saw that his master was "tired of playing",
He motioned to the two nuns to take the two young masters back.
Ji Chengjue sat on a chair in the study room, looked at the son and daughter who were being carried, and said with a smile:
“I didn’t understand before that why the eldest son was the most relied upon in the family and had the most family resources, while the youngest son was often the most favored, but now I understand.
This eldest son is a father for the first time. He is full of joy for the first time. He has the most expectations for the eldest son and carries his own hopes. Naturally, the eldest son has the most.
When the second child and the third child come out,
The freshness at the beginning was gone, and it happened again and again, and that was it.
It's just that there are a few more names under him in the family tree, and it's just that there are more pairs of chopsticks at the dinner table when eating.
For a family like ours, sometimes we don't even have to have a meal together, and we don't have to feed ourselves. How can this relationship not be weak?
As for this young son, he is almost a son of old age.
After middle age, no matter how green the tree is, it will eventually turn into dead wood. The children from earlier have also grown up.
When this child grows up, it is no longer fun. He is not as cute as he was when he was a child. He is still upset when he looks at him. He stares at you with his eyes every day, as if he is hoping that you will die soon so that he can fight for your property.
At this time, the younger son, who was not familiar with the world, had little expectations for him, at least, not much, but it was really like raising a child.
Get a dog, get a cat, get a... plaything, and you will be pampered naturally. "
Eunuch Zhang didn't dare to talk, he just laughed along with him.
Because my master seemed to be talking about himself, but in fact, he was probably alluding to His Majesty.
The name of the eldest prince is Wujiang;
The names of subsequent princes are all arranged according to the generation with the character "成".
This is enough to show the high hopes that Emperor Yan had for the eldest prince when he was born.
Moreover, the eldest prince was given birth and raised in the army since he was a child, and he grew up playing and playing with the men of Qiu Ba.
Since ancient times, any prince who can be tainted with military power and can lead troops to fight will definitely be favored.
Who will believe you that because I don't want to see you, I don't want you to be in front of me, and I deliberately let you lead the troops to fight?
If the boss hadn't lost his prestige at Wangjiang for the first time and almost ended Dayan's momentum of sweeping the kingdoms, and finally married a barbarian princess, now, besides the prince, his master's rivals for the throne would have to be Also add a eldest prince.
And the more this time comes, the greater the advantage for a prince who comes from a military background!
Because Dayan now has a strong military, a prince with his own background ascending the throne will naturally ensure the military's interests in the future.
And the seventh prince Ji Chengsu is indeed the most favored one in these years.
However, Eunuch Zhang still asked cautiously:
"Master, will tomorrow's court meeting be...?"
"As usual."
"Yes, Master." Eunuch Zhang agreed.
"Isn't my father dead? Haha, as long as he still has breath, no matter how hard he is, no matter how hard he is to prick the acupoints with silver needles, my father will not allow himself to vomit blood in front of the barbarian high priest.
If he really couldn't hold on, his father wouldn't even come forward. Now that he had come forward, his father would die immediately and he would maintain his dignity at the moment before his death.
Just vomiting blood,
Make them happy and happy,
After all,
Or just fool them for fun. "
Ji Laoliu was not guessing, because he said it in a statement, which was completely certain.
The older he gets, the more he looks like his father.
Not to mention anything else, just being able to "measure others by oneself" is enough for him to be several steps ahead of others in terms of understanding the Sacred Heart.
"Master, did your Majesty do this on purpose?"
"Deliberately, to show weakness to the enemy. This is to paralyze the enemy."
Ji Chengjue picked up the teacup, took a sip, and continued,
"Some of the accounts of the Household Department a while ago seemed to have no problems, and the money, grain and military supplies escorted to Beifeng County did not seem to have any problems at first glance, but some materials were a little too much.
It's not very noticeable, but it smells a little different. "
For the maintenance of weapons, the maintenance of bowstrings, and the protection of soldiers from frost, there is actually a lot of grease in Beifeng County, but some other materials need to be added to make the grease into something that can prevent soldiers from cracking their skin in the field in the cold winter season. Medicinal grease.
There are many details like this.
Furthermore, how did Sun Youdao guess it?
Damn it, he is still an emperor.
There was no reason that Sun Youdao could guess that Ji Chengjue, who was the roundworm in Emperor Yan's stomach, would not notice it at all.
If you look for evidence with a specific purpose to support your guess, you will be able to find clues in many places to make sure you are right.
Ji Chengjue took out a bottle of "Awakening Dew", poured out a little, and rubbed it on his eyebrows.
At this time,
There was a "duoduo" sound under the desk.
Eunuch Zhang immediately stepped forward and walked to the desk.
immediately,
A hole was opened under the pen shelf, and a note was delivered from inside.
Eunuch Zhang picked up the note and unfolded it,
road;
"The Seventh Prince has been arranged by His Majesty to serve in the Yangxin Hall."
Hearing this, Ji Chengjue nodded and smiled;
"Concubine Shu is probably so happy that she is lying on the bed crying and laughing at the same time?"
Ji Chengjue, this is a joke.
He guessed correctly;
This is not good luck,
But it means that as a prince, he has already figured out the character and habits of the concubine Shu very clearly.
Only when you truly know and understand a person, and that person has no secrets in front of you, can you casually guess her reaction.
Zhang Gonggong said;
"Master, I don't know what she is like. Shouldn't I be more afraid in the past?"
"You should be afraid. There is an example of Concubine Ming. How could she not be afraid? She has been afraid for too long. These days of being frightened and fearful of everything are tortured enough. Logically speaking, this episode should be The surprises and surprises have numbed me, leaving only joy.
Combined with the scene of vomiting blood at her father's banquet, it will give her a feeling...after all the hardships, the sun has risen. "
Ji Laoliu reached out and touched his pen holder.
in fact,
The way this kind of message is transmitted doesn't have to be so complicated at all.
But it is precisely because Zheng once said that he likes the feeling of people sitting there and messages being projected through the channel, which makes people feel very elegant.
Ji Chengjue laughed at him for taking off his pants and farting.
If you can't even knock on the door of your own study room, why are you still thinking of digging a tunnel underneath?
His palace has been screened over and over again by himself, and its safety has long been ensured.
But he still made a copper pipe like this according to the surname Zheng.
It was obvious that he could open the door and send the letter in, but he had to go through such a trick.
may,
Take off your pants and fart,
Is it a real attitude towards life?
At this time,
There was another "duoduo" sound from under the desk.
then,
As before, a piece of letter paper was thrown out from the opening under the pen holder.
Eunuch Zhang came forward to look through it.
report:
"Master, Your Majesty has asked His Royal Highnesses to lead the army to the palace and lead the palace's defense."
Ji Chengjue reached out, picked up a piece of plum blossom on the plate on the table, and put it into his mouth.
laughed;
"Fourth Brother, he was probably paralyzed on the ground with fear."
"Duo duo……"
Another letter was delivered.
Eunuch Zhang picked up the letter and took a look at it.
report:
"The Fourth Highness received the order to take charge of the palace's defense, and was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground."
"Hehehe, hahahaha..."
Ji Chengjue laughed.
The delivery of this information does not mean that one person delivered it twice;
Instead, two people voted in a short period of time and arrived here one after another as quickly as possible.
The first one should be someone close to Eunuch Qu, or at least a confidant of Eunuch Qu. In fact, Eunuch Qu may even know that he has this confidant and choose to acquiesce.
The eunuchs in the palace, or the eunuchs in red robes, who have gotten to that level, are not human beings, they are all the masters who step on other people's high positions in front of other people's confidants, how can they be so easy to mix in the sand?
In terms of the entire empire, including eunuchs and palace officials, Ji Laoliu's relationship is definitely the best among the princes.
But he,
He is not a pioneer, he is the maintainer of this relationship;
The one who truly established this relationship,
It's his mother.
You know, eight out of ten people who can become red-robed eunuchs in Ouchi now were old people in the palace or the East Palace in their early years.
When they were young eunuchs, when they were the most fearful and cautious,
When they are still the most immature and easiest to be moved and influenced,
It's that woman,
Use financial resources,
Do not,
Nor is it financial resources.
Not just giving money, but giving other things that are more likely to be moved than money. Money is just an add-on;
It was that woman who, at that time, established an iron-clad relationship for her son.
Intrauterine life is gray and white.
When many eunuchs are taking a nap or looking at candlelight in a daze, they can't help but recall some warm scenes in their lives. This is human nature and painful things. Who would like to sit there and ruminate when they have nothing to do?
And in that kind of warm scene, there must be that woman who smiles without any pretense and is very warm and genial.
The other news naturally came from the people around the fourth prince.
The person who could see the fourth prince in the most miserable state must be the confidant who helped him up after coming in.
"Master, why did Your Majesty ask His Highness the Fourth Prince to take charge of the palace's defense? The Seventh Prince does the same. Is this to bring all the Princes in and compete in the ring?"
Ji Chengjue shook his head,
Road:
"Since the fourth child said at the roast duck restaurant that day that he would not compete for that position, then he would definitely miss that position. This is worse than even Xiao Qi.
Neither the father nor the two princes would allow a prince who failed to take responsibility at the critical moment to sit on the throne of Dayan's future.
The news from Yingdu hasn't come yet, but I think Ran Min should be promoted. "
"Master, Your Majesty, this is..."
"As a father, no matter how much you don't feel sorry for your son, it's still your own fault after all, haha."
Ji Chengjue stretched his waist.
He took another plum and threw it into his mouth.
"This is because you are afraid that I will jump over the wall in a hurry."
"Your Majesty, are you on guard against you, Master?"
Ji Chengjue's eyebrows raised slightly,
Road:
"got used to."
I've long been... used to it.
"However, Gu just wants him to see with his own eyes how Gu defeated the prince standing in front of him at tomorrow's court meeting!
The old man has been famous all his life,
But there is one thing,
He can't help it,
He had been raised in the backyard for too long, and when he came back this time, it was impossible to go all out to clean it up.
right now,
This is the time when the old man is most afraid,
Not only does he want to create a better situation, but he also carefully protects the good situation in front of him.
then,
The armies of the two kings from the north and the south entered Beijing,
in fact,
The family has already surrendered, and the form is stronger than the person. The old man can take care of it calmly, but the old man doesn't. He insists on stepping on the family and cleaning it up in one fell swoop.
He now,
I no longer have the courage.
Son of Heaven,
It has to be sorted out one day! "
Ji Chengjue picked up another piece of plum blossom, held it on his fingertips and played with it;
"It's a good show, is it necessary to arrange the inside and outside again? Zhang Banban."
"The slave is here."
"I'm actually not worried about tomorrow's meeting. What I want to know now is another thing."
"Master, please order me to have someone go check it out right now."
At this moment,
Some intelligence networks no longer care whether they are exposed or not. For example, the news delivered tonight is not that it cannot be delivered, but that it is too fast. If it is too fast, it is easy for mistakes to be made and it may be exposed.
But it doesn't matter, because the decisive battle has come.
Once lost,
No matter how much foundation you keep in your hands, what's the use?
"You can't find this, even if we use all our manpower in the capital, we can't find it. Once we find it, we won't be able to send back the news because it's too far away.
At that time,
The situation in Beijing has been decided. "
"What do you want to check, Master?"
"I want to know whether the two kings of the north and the south will still be in the capital after dawn."
"..." Eunuch Zhang.
"Pingxihou's Mansion and Andonghou's Mansion, it's such a coincidence that they are arranged next to the two palaces? Pingxihou's Mansion is better, they are all newly organized mansions. Let's look at the relationship between King Jingnan and Zheng. Living together is normal.
But what about the boss?
The boss has been to Beifeng County.
But now all the sons of King Renzhenbei have been found,
What kind of shame does the boss have to take the initiative to approach others? "
"Master, the Anton Marquis Mansion has been established a long time ago." Eunuch Zhang reminded.
"Yes, the gray thread of a grass snake has a vein that runs thousands of miles."
Ji Chengjue tilted his neck back,
The words in my hand are thrown up,
"It's a good job, old man, but it's a pity that I can't just throw away a piece of silver to appreciate it like I did when I was listening to books in Nan'an County."
There was silence for a while in the study.
"We can't find out the movements of the two kings of the north and south. There is only one person who can know."
"Master, are you talking about Lord Zheng?"
"That's him. Tian Wujing will hide it from everyone, but not him."
"Slave, let the people from the Hou Mansion..."
There were spies in the Hou Mansion, but he had greeted the housekeeper of Heping Xihou Mansion in advance.
Everyone knew it well and left a messenger.
"I'm just afraid that Zheng doesn't dare to tell me."
"master……"
"I'm even more afraid that someone named Zheng would dare to tell me."
He didn't dare to tell because it was clearly his father's will. Ping Xihou, who was watching the fire from the other side, was also involved.
The emperor was angry, and at the last moment, in Yanjing, once he entered the situation, it was equivalent to actively betraying the emperor, which was a huge risk.
This is completely different from setting up a place for oneself at a big banquet.
The emperor's will must be kept secret.
If he dares to say it, he is deceiving the emperor.
People surnamed Zheng always like to protect themselves wisely and regard their own lives as more important than heaven. It is normal not to spread this word to themselves.
Moreover, it has a tenable foothold for the country, the people, and Dayan's hegemony.
and,
If the person named Zheng sold the imperial edict under such circumstances, come and tell yourself.
This means,
The picture of the person named Zheng,
Very big.
He has a reason that he has to do, or he has an opponent that he really wants to kill.
because,
Only hatred, only when you want to kill someone or want to get rid of someone very much, this concentrated hatred can make a person go to such an extreme;
In order to be stable and prosperous, he has no shortage of them now, so naturally he won't be in a hurry.
"Do you know why Gu chose the one named Zheng in the first place?"
"It must be the master who knows people with his keen eye."
"Fart, Gu is not a god, God knows he can fly so high?"
Ji Chengjue smiled and said,
"Because he seems to be the same type of person as Ran Min, but he is completely different from people like Ran Min. The premise is that you can really be regarded as a friend by him."
At this time,
There was a knock at the study door.
Eunuch Zhang stood up, walked to the door, and opened the study door.
A dwarf dressed in black stood at the door with a smile.
Eunuch Zhang's eyes immediately narrowed.
"Mr. Three?"
Ji Chengjue obviously recognized Xue San and was not familiar with him, but the people around Zheng Fan were so unique.
Xue San walked in,
Didn't kneel down,
Just bend down and salute,
Fortunately, whether he was kneeling or not, the height was still the same.
"Your Highness, my Marquis asked me to come over and tell you something."
"Say."
"My Marquis said, do you still remember the original agreement?"
"remember."
Zheng Fan put the cup on his cup, and then the two high-fived.
"Okay, what the Marquis asked me to take is this: the two kings of the north and the south will leave the capital before dawn and head west."
Ji Chengjue heard this,
take a deep breath,
I closed my eyes.
He was not shocked by the news, but by Zheng Fan's purpose.
what exactly is it,
Let the man named Zheng abandon his past style and join in so deeply?
Xue San spoke again:
"My Marquis also said that there are [-] Jingnan Army cavalry outside the capital, and the Jingnan Prince has already given him the order."
"Although ten thousand cavalry are powerful, this is Yanjing City." Ji Chengjue reminded.
Within the capital, there are various camps, and outside the capital, there is also a town to suppress the Northern Army.
"What my Lord Marquis means is that even if he really loses at the card table, he can take your Highness and your family to break out of the capital."
way back,
They all promised themselves.
His surname is Zheng, and he always likes to put on pants and refuse to admit his fault. Why is he so heartwarming this time?
"Does your Marquis have anything else to say?" Ji Chengjue asked.
"And the last sentence is a bit disrespectful."
"But it doesn't matter."
"My Marquis said:
Brother, it’s rare for me to trust someone, and I want to be a true brother with you.
Xiao Liuzi,
You yourself,
It depends. "
